Untitled

Please, look here: www.wikimapia.org/#lat=44.629085&lon=22.648659&z=13&l=5... This is the romanian city DROBETA TURNU SEVERIN. And please let us call it Drobeta Turnu Severin, and NOT: Drobeta-Turnu-Severin Drobeta Turnu-Severin Drobeta-Turnu Severin! =)

I have translated the romanian article about Drobeta Turnu Severin. I think it need some corrections and citation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bogdan Doandes (talk • contribs) 06:30, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edits

I have edit the article quite a bit today, changing the text in some sentences, correcting grammar, spelling and punctuation. I have also cleaned up the Reference section. Hopefully it makes the article more readable without changing the essential content. --BwB (talk) 15:18, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

climate?

The term used in the article is "sub-Mediterranean". Unfortunately that doesn't seem to match the nomenclature used elsewhere on English Wikipedia. The map of the Köppen climate classification, Image:World_Koppen_Map.png, indicates that this region may be marked Cfa (humid subtropical climate), Cfb (oceanic climate) or Dfb (humid continental climate). --Joy [shallot] (talk) 16:01, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

First mention - by whom, Ptolemy?

"The first written document, mentioning the city 1,870 years earlier, was commemorated in 1992."

Unsourced claim. 1992 - 1870 = 122. Is it about Ptolemy mentioned by Enc. Britannica, who wrote about Drobeta in the 2nd c.? If so, this sentence can be merged into the next. And made less awkward. Arminden (talk) 15:08, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What did Trajan build there?

I don't know what the difference is in English between castrum and castra (apparently Romans used -um for fort, -a for camp), and which one fits what Trajan actually built there. For now I've used both in different sections; splitting the odds :) Britannica has "Drobeta, a Dacian town made into a castrum (fortified place) by the Romans". It doesn't help, as both forts and legionary camps were "fortified places". Arminden (talk) 15:13, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Castrum is singular, castra is plural. StefThrax (talk) 19:17, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
